Summary

The purpose of this Manual is to provide a summary of Texas trip generation data for various Land Use Codes (LUCs) and time periods, for data obtained from workplace and special generator (WSG) surveys performed as part of the Texas Travel Survey Program (TTSP). Updates to the dataset will be performed periodically as new data become available. New data may became available in the form of new travel survey data, newly analyzed travel survey data, or Texas trip generation study data submitted by other groups, such as students or service organizations. The User's Guide portion of the Manual (Volume 1) provides an overview of the data, as well as recommendations of how to properly use the plots contained in the data portion of the Manual (Volumes 2-4), which contains plots showing the average vehicle trip ends plotted across different independent variables (i.e., employees, 1000 Sq. Feet Gross Floor Area, etc.). The data contained in this version of the Manual are taken from surveys performed in five Texas areas, between the years 2010 and 2013.
